[QUOTE="7.62 Gunner, post: 2559685, member: 121641"] Yeah I don't think anyone is denying the fact that the PRC is optimized for the non handloader. What most of us aren't stoked about it that Hornady could actually do it right, and apply all the concepts you mentioned to a case that has a capacity and thus ballistic advantage over current offerings. Offering a 7 prc based on a very slightly shorter 300 prc with a capacity around 90 + grains could have been a huge win. Instead Hornady lame ducked it just like they did with the 6.5 version. I'm not mad just disappointed 😉 On another note, stuffing a longer bullet into a saami throated 7 RM will get very similar velocity, HSM offers 180 vld ammo that's getting 2850 ish. We've already seen some manufactures like Browning offer faster twist barrels in 7mm [/QUOTE]
